BRITTANY INGALLS

Britt Ingalls bartends at Silver Lyan at the Riggs Hotel in Washington, D.C. A queer woman with a winding career path and a penchant for inhabiting traditionally male positions, Britt has been a ski boot fitter, nature preserve land manager, door-to-door pest control sales associate, and wilderness medicine instructor, just to name a few. After inhabiting various corners of the service industry, she got her start behind the stick as an unwanted barback for a music venue in 2014. In hospitality and mixing drinks, she continues to find deep abiding enjoyment, community, and empowerment.
